Jewelry of Palo Alto

Creating

custom unique hand-made jewelry is a dying art, but at Diamonds of Palo Alto it is our specialty. We involve the customer in many aspects of the design process, so as to make sure that the piece is made to the customer's liking and with great attention to detail. We try to educate our customers with the latest knowledge on materials and stones, so that the customers can make the right choices in creating their one of a kind piece.

To Start

the process, you have a consultation with the store's gemologists to go over stone choices and metal types. During the consultation you are asked a few critical questions such as: is this a piece for everyday wear or is it for special occasions only, is the person the piece being designed for active or in an occupation that requires a lot of physical activity, do they have any allergies to certain metals, favorite colors and birthstones, metal types, etc?

Why

we ask these questions is to figure out what would be best suited for this person’s life style. We want to create a custom hand-made jewelry piece that you can wear a lifetime that is a reflection of who you are.

After

we have gotten a general idea of what is needed and an understanding of what your lifestyle requires, we have you sit down with our award winning jewelry designer, who will sketch a few concepts. After you and our designer have reached a final decision on the design, comes the fun part when we create a wax version of your future creation. The wax mockup is a way for you to actually try on the piece and request any changes before we make the finished piece. The piece is cast in the metal of your choice, the stones are set, and the piece is finished, polished and on your hand (or ears, or neck, or wrist) before you know it. After we design the piece we name it after you because it is yours and was tailor made for you and you alone.
